Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Gary Wolcott (857) for Tri-City Herald (818) on 10 Aug 2012

Great acting but Hope Springs drags to the point of seeming eternal…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Tony Medley (1,109) for Tolucan Times (639) on 09 Aug 2012

Even though it's sometimes difficult to watch, Streep, Jones, and Carell sparkle. This should be rewarded as one of the best of the year…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Clint O'connor (453) for Cleveland Plain Dealer (828) on 09 Aug 2012

Meryl Streep is excellent in this look at how relationships grow stale. Not quite the bouncy rom-com being peddled in the trailer and commercials…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Perry Seibert (178) for TV Guide (1,527) on 09 Aug 2012

By refusing to delve deeper, the characters come off as two-dimensional symbols whom we can relate to only because we might have experienced…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Jim Judy (1,199) for Screen It! (1,437) on 09 Aug 2012

The seasoned performers have no problem making one believe in them and what they're feeling. (Full Content Review for Parents also available)…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 08 Aug 2012

The movie perseveres with affecting, sometimes startling candor, and eventually delivers on its promise by confronting the dark fears and furtive…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Peter Travers (3,602) for Rolling Stone (4,035) on 08 Aug 2012

Hope Springs knows happy endings are provisional. What this exuberant gift of a movie offers Kay and Arnold is a renewed appetite for life…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Peter Keough (994) for Boston Phoenix (1,372) on 08 Aug 2012

Frankel downplays the sentiment and allows his stars to explore the more tragic nuances of their stereotypical roles…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Sandie Angulo Chen (751) for Common Sense Media (4,943) on 08 Aug 2012

Marital dramedy is well acted but won't interest teens…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Jim Slotek (879) for Jam! Movies (2,396) on 08 Aug 2012

Really, who'd have thought they'd ever see a movie with Meryl Streep in it, where someone else does all the dramatic heavy lifting…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 08 Aug 2012

If the film doesn't really explore the pain and bitterness of this marriage, it's still leagues ahead of most such attempts…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Kimberley Jones (866) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 08 Aug 2012

In a media landscape that only has eyes for the sex lives of nubile young things, Hope Springs' sincere, considered, and unembarrassed exploration…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Ben Sachs (546) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 08 Aug 2012

These modest virtues are buried under such hard-sell devices as a manipulative muzak score and sitcom-style close-ups that disrupt the narrative…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Richard Roeper.com (322) on 08 Aug 2012

Director to Jones: Just be yourself. Works for me. Master class in acting from the two leads…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Willie Waffle (1,383) for WaffleMovies.com (1,380) on 08 Aug 2012

Wow. Just WOW is the best way to react to what Tommy Lee Jones is doing on screen…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Lorien Haynes (15) for Movieline (883) on 08 Aug 2012

Had the movie been made with two different lead actors, I surely believe the movie would have been unwatchable…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Blu-ray.com (2,093) on 08 Aug 2012

Hope Springs has an exceptional command of martial nuance and an appreciation of annoyance, with all the studio shenanigans getting in the…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Rene Rodriguez (1,781) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 08 Aug 2012

The movie is oddly impersonal - you remember the concept more than the story - and feels like something that was made simply for the opportunity…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Robin Clifford (1,670) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 08 Aug 2012

A complete package with good directing, writing, acting and production…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Beliefnet (937) on 08 Aug 2012

Streep and Jones are pure magic…
